“Beth Cooper Benjamin is one of the most effective feminist educators I know and one of my go-to thinkers on girls’ leadership development.”

— Rachel Simmons, bestselling author of Odd Girl Out and Enough As She Is, founder of the Girls’ Leadership Institute

“Working with Beth in high school was a completely path-changing experience. As an educator now, I’m always trying to think, “How can I do that? How can I create that same experience for my students?”

— Sam Schwartz, Ma’yan That’s Not Fair! Political Theater Apprenticeship alum

 

“As young women struggle with unprecedented pressures ranging from college admission to peers on social media to the after-effects of the global pandemic, the techniques Beth developed are supporting our teachers to cut through this noise and focus on helping students grow into the people they want to be in the world. She is an empathetic, innovative educator and a joy as a collaborator.”

— Julie Faulstich, Head of School, Westover School

“My work with Beth has been essential to my growth as an educator and advocate for student and faculty wellbeing. Her expertise in girls' social and emotional development along with her deep knowledge of educational systems provided our school an opportunity to develop targeted and effective interventions to foster resilience in our community.”

— Katie Guthrie, School Psychologist, Westover School

 

"Working with Beth in the RTI was my first introduction to thinking about structures and systems that make people vulnerable and put them at risk of injustice and inequity. It helped me understand that you can attack problems at different levels, and why things are happening the way that they do. Today I think about structures and systems a lot, and the RTI stands out to me as one of the first times where I was being taught that.”

— Leah Schwartz, Ma’yan Research Training Internship alum, now a student at Harvard Medical School
